Zoey is the best actress on this list

When I told you guys that the Warner Bros division that handles TV series are not messing around with DC properties they have, I wasn't joking.

If you thought Pennyworth and Superman and Lois was great, wait till you see Sweet Tooth.
Sweet Tooth is the only perfect comic book show this year
It is by far the best comic book adaptation of the year.

It doesn't have action or midblowing vfx or whatever.
Sweet Tooth is a drama.
And great stories and characters is what makes a good drama.

The story of Sweet Tooth is so so good.
One episode is what it takes to capture your attention.
The story is very emotional too, the last episode almost brought tears to my eyes.
The show is PG13.. Nothing gory.
But godamn is it dark and gritty...oh my God!

My respect goes to Netflix for what they did with this DC comics adaptation.
RDJ and his wife were producers on this show, Robert may be done with Marvel but his days with comic book adaptations are not over.

The producers and directors did an awesome job.

I still can't decide which is the biggest highlight in this series between the story and the characters.
But I give it to the characters.
The characters are everyday people you can relate with. They got depth and proper development.
The characters elevate this show especially that little boy.
He is a very good actor.

Sweet Tooth is a perfect show but it's also a missed opportunity.
This kind of show should be an HBO Max exclusive but Netflix had the last laugh and BTW it's a hit on the streaming service.

What an amazing show. It's an easy 10/10
I can't wait for season 2.

I knew it was going to drop grin grin but I never expected the drop to be this steep
I believe Disney is lying about that $60m cume from Disney+
The premier access is $30 and seeing it in theaters is a lot cheaper than that.

Only a household of 2,3 or more persons will pay that $30 easily rather than going theaters.

Unlike box office numbers, Disney+ cume cannot be verified by any other party except Disney themselves so it is easy to report fake numbers

There are a lot of buff women that can act. Hollywood prefers skinny model type in lead roles because... higher sex appeal.
Mention a buff woman that will make a better Wonder Woman than Gal Gadot

Some people say they are not excited for The Suicide Squad.
Be very excited cuz this is going to be a very entertaining film

TV/Movies › Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by BlackManta(m): 3:27pm On Jul 15, 2021
The early reactions are mostly positive...

I have changed my mind.
This movie is one I will see in theaters

Y'all are not ready for what James Gunn has cooked. cool

TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by BlackManta(m): 11:48am On Jul 14, 2021
The Mitchells vs the Machines is hands down the best animated movie of the year..
It had everything you want in a movie. Great and relatable characters, a good story, decent action, heart... etc
This movie is perfect.
I cannot list the top 5 movies of 2021 without including this one.

I expect it to easily win Academy awards for best animated film of the year, if Disney Pixar no buy the award sha

The Mitchells vs the Machines 10/10

As opposed to IMDb and Metacritic that are 'impartial' in their rating aggregation, huh? You gat jokes bro. No aggregation system is perfect, but RT uses an algorithm that provides a fair critic consensus before we even get to watch a movie. RT is not exclusive to only professional critics, but you also get a fully rounded out review because you can also see how the audience feels.

Compared to Fandango, IMBb and Metacritic, RT is the best rating aggregation website out there.
I almost fell asleep reading this thing

Black Widow (2021) 0.6 /10

It's easier to watch WW84 than than this movie.
There's only one great female led superhero movie out there and that is Wonder Woman.

TV/Movies › Re: DC EXTENDED UNIVERSE (FILM) by BlackManta(m): 5:45pm On Jul 13, 2021
The supremacy of Wonder Woman is still unmatched...

Other female led movies from both Marvel and DC still dey learn work
Birds of prey, WW84, Black Widow and Captain Marvel.... I can't re-watch any of these films
They are all trash

I hope WB go back to the drawing board, bring back the Wonder Woman I used to know
Teach these fvckers how to make a proper female led movie

Comparing Thanos to that misogynist in black Widow.

Oga, answer me, what did Thanos did to Nebula?

Let me leave your other points for now.
He tortured her to force gamora to spill important info. Info that ONLY gamora can give with the right motivation of course.

Emphasis on only.

Was Greygov daughter the ONLY one that could become that weaponhuh

Yes or no

Spoilers


So Gamora was the only daughter Thanos had? Watch End Game again and tell me what Thanos did to his second daughter.


Dregkov daughter was involved in an explosion. He only saved her by putting a chip in the back of her neck. I am in no way supporting how he turned her into "winter soilder" but hey, that guy is a villain for a reason.

This is similar to what cyborg's dad did.


Man! Not everything involving women is feminism, especially this particular movie.

Lastly this has nothing to do with fandom.
Anyone can be turned into a weapon.

Why his daughter?

Did cyborg's Dad deliberately turn into a weapon?
Did he know beforehand that Victor would gain the ability to fly, hack any technology and control nuclear weapons with his mind.
No he didn't.

He wanted to save him. When Victor became a weapon, he didn't use him or try to control him.

Derygov saved his daughter. But he didn't stop there. He used her as a weapon.

Cyborg's Dad is very different.

Try something else please

The movie's alright... You're seeing wokeness where there is none...The guy's simply crazy...Had nothing to do with all your spouting...
Villains are always crazy but they shouldn't be horrible abeg.
Was Thanos crazy? Yes. Was he a well written villain? Yes. Was he horrible? NO!

Greygov is a terrible written villain, the most horrible

What are you talking about?

What did Thanos do to his own daughters?

What did cyborg's Dad did to him in JL?

Black Widow storyline was somewhat watery but not as bad as you paint it.

I refuse to see a feminist agenda in it. Most of the combat were between widows, it's not like what we saw on Charlie's Angel.
I know someone will mention Thanos, I was waiting for an MCU fan to use it as excuse and you didn't disappoint.

Thanos sacrificed his daughter because she was the only thing he could sacrifice to get the soul stone.

"To get the soul stone, you must loose that which you love". Remember that statement from red skull.

Watch the movie again.
The Thanos and gamora thing makes sense, it was for a clear purpose and Thanos had no choice.

As for Cyborg dad.
The man had already lost his wife and didn't want to loose his son.
He was trying to save his life, not turn him into a weapon he can use as he likes.

What was the purpose of that thing dregov did to his daughter.?
He could have done it to anyone for fvcks sake. It didn't have to be his little girl.
But he is a misogynist, he hates women including an innocent 10 year old girl. His own daughter.

Don't use Thanos as excuse again.
Man was shedding tears after he sacrificed Gamora. He loved her.
Thanos is not a misogynistic pig abeg

Don't compare him with Dreygov or whatever his name is.

Of course since it's a female movie, the villain had to be the embodiment of misogyny.
I was fine with it until they included his daughter in the whole women subjugation agenda. It made the villain absolutely horrible.

Women are leading Phase 4 like dis.

I still dey wonder how Captain Marvel 2/ The Marvels go perform this time. Maybe WandaVision goodwill will be enough.

All this one na small things, wait till when they start turning straight characters to LGBT community, you go know Wetin dey sup. grin
They have already started.

There's a gay people in Eternals.
That black guy and the big Asian guy, there's a rumour flying around saying there will be gay kiss in the movie.

I really hope it's not true

Black widow 4/10

My biggest gripe was with the portrayal of task master, can't say much without spoiling the movie but as an avid comic book reader I feel slightly insulted tbh....

Yelena is going after Clint now? Omo, how the mighty has fallen
Black Widow is a woke Feminist movie.

The metoo feminism message was too much, they used this movie to just push ideology on how women are being oppressed and subjugated.

I'm not the reason women are getting oppressed, I just want to be entertained for God's sake!

I can't say too much for sake of spoilers but the main villain is white misogynistic pig who hates women. Even his own daughter!
The thing about his daughter eh, Jesus christ! Who wrote that nonsense? What was the point of that nonsense he did. He could have done it anyone but no. The villain is meant to be the craziest misogynistic pig ever so they wrote the story so he did that thing to his own little girl.
Never have I seen a comic book villain brought so low.....not for entertainment but for feminism.

Is that guy not the most terrible written villain ever. Jesu!

Can DC please learn how to choreograph women fighting scene from Marvel?

I enjoyed the fight sequence in Black Widow, only the Melina fight was fake AF.

Twas a good watch, funny even. I like the lady that played Yelena, she is good.

Overall, its a 7/10 for me.

And what was that 'marvel's' ending.

It has to be a misdirection, cos TF!!!
Have you seen Captain Marvel huh

How do you like the shitty action sequences huh

The poor women fighting is not DC thing abeg, watch captain marvel. It was MCU first female movie not black Widow
